Backyard Axe Throwing — the Safe, Foam Kind Everyone Can Try

Competitive axe throwing exploded in popularity in the 2010s, growing from a backyard pastime in Canada into leagues and venues across North America. It scratches a very specific itch: the deeply satisfying thunk of hitting a target.

Our set keeps all of that fun and removes the risk — the axes are soft foam and the target is a bristle board, so it's safe for a wide range of ages while still feeling like the real thing.

It's a genuine showstopper at events and photographs incredibly well, which is why it's one of our premium rentals at $30. (And yes — the photo on our site is our actual set.)
